Association between anthropometric indices and hyperuricemia: a nationwide study in China.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This article explored the relationship between anthropometric indices and hyperuricemia in Chinese adults. The ability of each anthropometric index to predict hyperuricemia was also compared in this article. This is a cross-sectional study containing 69,842 samples from 31 provinces and cities in China. Anthropometric indices included body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), waist circumference-triglyceride index (WTI), and weight-adjusted waist index (WWI). The survey data obtained were disaggregated and analyzed according to sex and age. BMI, WC, BRI, WHtR, LAP, VAI, TyG, WTI, and WWI were all significantly associated with hyperuricemia (P < 0.001). In the total population, WTI (AUC 0.7015, P < 0.001) had the highest predictive power, and WWI (AUC 0.5417, P < 0.001) had the lowest. In addition, after dividing the male and female populations, LAP (AUC 0.6571, P < 0.001 for men; AUC 0.7326, P < 0.001 for women) had the highest predictive power among both men and women. The ABSI (AUC 0.5189, P < 0.001 for men; AUC 0.5788, P < 0.001 for women) had the lowest predictive power among both men and women. BMI, WC, BRI, WHtR, LAP, VAI, TyG, and WTI were positively correlated with the risk of hyperuricemia and serum uric acid concentrations in both sexes. Among the general population, WTI had the highest predictive power. After dividing the population by sex, LAP had the highest predictive power in both men and women. Key Points • Anthropometric indices are highly correlated with hyperuricemia. Waist circumference-triglyceride index (WTI) is first found to be associated with hyperuricemia, and it has high predictive power. • The predictive power of anthropometric indices for hyperuricemia is more useful in women. • The restricted cubic splines visually shows the ratio of anthropometric indices to hyperuricemia ratio and the patient's serum uric acid concentration.
